Maybe you ought to tell her, look, if you want to ask me about any of it, OK, but I would not start start telling her any more if she dont ask.
Most likely, she will say OK and not mention it again.

This reminds me of a story my friend told me about his coming out. He was in his late 20's and had a "friend" who was a little older and a doctor. His family thought they mostly went to the gym together, that sort of thing.

Well, one day they were going hot and heavy in the living room, one thing lead to another and they were activly engaged on the carpet when his mother pops by.

You know how mothers are, they just come on in!

She stood there shocked for a moment stareing at them, who had of course were also frozen by shock, and then she backed out and shut the door.

He freaked about it all day, wondering what to say etc etc. So he called her the next day and she was very smooth about the whole thing. She said: "Well, we always wanted a doctor in the family...but somehow we thought it would be your sister who caught him."

That's been one of my fears about keeping a journal online. I don't e-mail my uncle from my main e-mail addresses because I don't want him to find out - he's Catholic, and he'd be devastated. For co-workers, though, I figure if they find it, it's their own doing and they're responsible for whatever they read. I'm not terribly closeted, but for those to which I am I try to keep my journal a secret.
